@seemescotland train the trainer events in Inverness and Aberdeen this week. Excited to see the young people in the @NAllianceScot supported as we work to reduce stigma and discrimination around Mental Health @Derek_Sawyer_ @Bernade27300176 #keepcollaborating

What a pleasure to work with @NAllianceScot youth advisory group to discuss how we capture the voice of all the learners in our region @Suebriggs55 @DerekSim9 @Katconasg
Session 1 of the @NAllianceScot book group. Technical issues couldn't squash the rich discussion and the obvious passion to support our young people. Looking forward to next week thankyou @DerekSim9 for all your hard work.
@BDPerry and @Oprah thankyou for this accessible and optimistic book. It just arrived today and I can't put it down. #whathappendtoyou A fab recommendation @Katconasg

For the last 23 yrs end of holiday prep has meant packing a bag and ironing something respectable to wear to school. Tomorrow however, I start a secondment with @NAllianceScot and so my back to work prep looks very different. Excited and nervous!

@BanchoryAcademy are very proud to be the first secondary school in Scotland to be awarded a stage 3 Garden Schools Award! So much hard work has gone into this beautiful, sustainable outdoor learning environment. Well done! #Aberdeenshire #outdoorlearning

1000 pieces of yellow bunting around our school for #HelloYellow each triangle details the little things members of our school community do to promote positive mental health. @YoungMindsUK @BanchoryAcademy @parent_forum #Aberdeenshire @BanAc_HWB
40 S3 pupil volunteers being trained as BGE peer listeners for next session. Encouraging to see such compassion and willingness to help from our young people #wellbeing #letstalk #aberdeenshire

@BanchoryAcademy Liam in S3 has worked so hard on this patchwork cushion. Finished just in time to take home for the summer. We all agree he is a future contender for #greatbritishsewingbee #RTBA #skills Well done!
@parent_forum Thank you to our wonderful parents for making us all cry at the end of a busy term! A box of thanks- so many messages of encouragement. #RTBA #partnership @BanchoryAcademy
For all staff and pupils @BanchoryAcademy please ask for help when you need it #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek
@NewHollandAG this took 3 hours for Aiden to draw. He saw one in real life "popping a bale out" and was inspired! We are so proud of him. @BanchoryAcademy #farming
@BanchoryAcademy outdoor classroom all set up for the first of 25 BGE #outdoorlearning PSE lessons. Campfire and hot chocolate , friends and reconnection. So glad @scotgov encourages us to learn #outside #aberdeenshire #healthandwellbeing
This is just a small part of the Phase Two Return timetable which didn't even exist last week. The work @BanchoryAcademy staff have done to get our pupils back has been emense. It will be great to have more pupils in our building from Monday. #aberdeenshire #RTBA
